Lake Lanier Homes and Lake Lanier Real Estate

Forsyth County, one of the nations
fastest growing communities, is an area of pastoral rolling hills and
beautiful countryside. The county is slowly changing as new residents
move into the moderate to lavish subdivisions. Many of these residents
are building near the shores of Lake Lanier, a 38,000 acre man-made
lake, and in the southern end of the county where access to Georgia 400
makes for an easier commute to downtown Atlanta. Forsyth County, named
after statesman John Forsyth, was established in 1832 by legislative
act. Forsyth is noted for its equestrian events, and is still agrarian
and rural in many parts. Many Atlantans have discovered that living near
the lake outweighs the commute to employment. The area is especially
attractive to airline pilots and those who do not work regular business
hours as well as those who commute to office parks along the Georgia 400
corridor. The great majority of residents live at the lake full-time, as
opposed to a decade ago when the lakeside areas were sparsely populated
except for the summer months or weekend retreats. Cumming homes for sale
start at about $150,000 and Lake Lanier homes for sale and luxury estate
homes are priced up to $4.5 million or more, and a deep water one-half
acre lot with boat dock privileges can range $300,000 to $600,000+. As
with most resort type areas, there are pockets of Lake Lanier
estate-type homes in price ranges close to $5 million or more. Country
living near a tranquil deep-water lake is the dream of many. If the idea
of watching sun sets reflecting across the water from the comfort of
your own deck or dock appeals to you, contact us to explore the
possibilities of Lake Lanier real estate in Forsyth County.
